I achieved this by customizing the title page template
(fo/titlepage.templates.xml):
<t:titlepage t:element="book" t:wrapper="fo:block">
<t:titlepage-content t:side="recto">
* <mediaobject/>*
<title
t:named-template="division.title"
param:node="ancestor-or-self::book[1]"
text-align="right"
font-size="&hsize5;"
space-before="&hsize5space;"
font-weight="bold"
font-family="{$title.fontset}"
border-top-style="solid"
padding-before="10"
/>
…
You have to add an extra step to generate the title page xsl and then
include this in your customization layer.
I use maven and docbkx-tools to do this; I'm not familiar with DEP4E.
Bob describes this process in:

but applies equally well for FO)
